You may discuss the " Who is better, Buble,Sinatra,Darin,Armstrong and so on-Question" till hell freezes. A real artist must try just NOT to sound like" Whoever" - and if you prefer the versions of other guys, just listen to them. What´s so difficult about that?
@Drblooter99 That´s an interessting point of view. Perhaps you are right. But i´m in doubt if a reasonable debate about a song performed by diverse artists or a discussion about "the best performer" might be reasonable at all. At least music is a matter of individual taste. Sincerely mrtautriadelta
That's a persuasive point, until in my mind I put an X factor winner next to Sinatra, or perhaps Paul Rodgers of Free. If I didn't immediately believe that the X factor guy is vastly inferior, I might as well give up listening to music. Though obviously your point works better with established top singers.
@Drblooter99 Your arguments are indeed persuasive too. I share your opinion about the X factor winner example. Don´t get me wrong. If I would have to judge about several Mack the Knife versions, Buble would not be my favorite. But I´m still in doubt if music could be judged otherwise than by personal taste. Difficult situation. And thanks for the respectfull and friendly conversation - that´s not self-evident on YouTube.
Have u lied? Have u stolen? Jesus said if you look at a women with lust you have committed adultery with here in your heart.
If God judge’s u by the Ten Commandments will u be innocent or guilty? Does this concern you? The Bible says despise the value of your eye compared to the value of your soul. would u sell your eye for a million dollars? And as it is appointed unto men once to die, but after this the judgment: Except ye repent, ye shall all likewise perish. needgod.com
id like to slap that tosser emcee! and this talentless michael shithead should be shot a ta dawn for being such an ARSEWIPE! you ruined it you fookin canadian twat, you can`t sing you gay bastard!!!
sorry, Bobby Darin destroys this performance in comparison, and I'm not even an expert on this type of music. In fact, I'm not the nostalgia tard, Buble's fans are. You can't go back and beat the original. Buble's got some decent originals, but someone's gonna have to try harder with a new song before you can say he competes with the greats.
The only reason Buble has a career is he is alive and can take the nostalgia tards down memory lane.
@TheRealCritique You couldn't be further from the truth. His career became so successful due to songs such as, 'call me irresponsible', 'everything', 'lost' etc etc! Those songs were the real fame/money earners! Also what's so bad taking people down nostalgia lane? He sing's brilliantly.
It's classic how he starts clapping the offbeats, and all the people just disregard and come in on one and three. Further evidence that Canadians are even whiter than we are.
DEFINITELY HE HAS NO STYLE TO SING THIS SONG ONLY FEW GUYS CAN PREFORM THIS SONG SOME OF THEM ARE FRANK SINATRA BOBY DARIN , THE MUCHAEL BUBLE 'S VOICE IS SO SMOOTH FOR THIS SONG
There's always some asshat that has to say someone later is better than the original and they're NEVER right. Buble has a good voice, better than Connick, who sucked, but he isn't even in league with Sinatra or Bennett etc. He's raw here, and the band is dead, making him seem worse. I just read someone say Pearl Jam was better than the Beatles. Opinion is no excuse for raw stupidity. Noone else will ever beat Sinatra at this style, because he pioneered it. Plus you need NEW SONGS to compete.
There's always some nostalgia tard who hates the fact their favourites actually have competition from the new generation.God forbid I turn out like you trolling on the internet about how one era is better than another. Quite frankly those 'my favourite singer >>>. your favourite singer' is for the ignorant like you. Comparisons between the two are pointless as they have different vocal technique.
But hey, What do I know? I just listen to both singers. That's all?
@Th3BlackReaper I'm honest about assessing acts for what they are. I'm not a nostalgia tard. I just think that the music industry is rewarding image over talent these days. I also think songwriting has gone to hell.
That said, there are good songs being made all the time.
Comparing Pearl Jam to the Beatles is just stupid, just like Buble to Sinatra. That's factual. Muse is another good band with a good singer, but the bar in general is lower because the US public are stupider.
I agree with you on the first part but bashing Michael Buble doesn't really help - he's clearly the most talented artist. Yes, his voice does rival SInatra's in terms of QUALITY - not the tone or even their vocal techniques are comparable. But their talent is.
@pariserm I am a sinatra fan, but i think that michael buble has more talent. Sinatra was always flat and he didnt write any of his songs, he was still fantastic. however buble is never flat and writes all the songs that arn't covers. How can you say that he lacks talent and has no appeal. You obviously dont know your music and your jellous because either your girlfriend or your boyfriend have a crush on him and you have your knickers in a twist about it so you want to lash out. Bubles wicked
@MRrednaxela1 I'm not positive about all of Buble's songs, but I know for a fact that he did not write his most famous song Haven't met you yet, at least not alone and probably not at all. Just tagged his name to it. Buble is awesome and a very talented person and just what our music industry needs (that being class), but to say Sinatra was ever flat has to be one of the stupidest things I've ever heard.
@lawsonmahoney Michael Bublé wrote Haven't Met You Yet with his music Director Alan Chang and his Co-writer Amy Foster. As Far as I now Michael Bublé has written 9 songs, three of then not on an album, these songs include: Haven't Met You Yet, Lost , Everything, Hold On, Hollywood, Home, Dumb O'l Heart, Here's to Life and I've Never Been in Love Before. Even thought Michael has not written a lot of his songs his talent is still huge! :)
I'm a big fan of standards, and I've just been browsing youtube listening to a dozen or so clips of Michael Buble. I don't see the attraction. He's a nice looking fellow he seems to think he's much better than he is. His versions of song lack any orignality and he certainly can't compete with the likes of Sinatra or Darin. Is anyone out there willing to tell me what this man's appeal is?
You've got to be kidding--Bobby Darin completely owns this song. Michael's version is embarrassing to say the least--especially his stab at swagger that ONLY Bobby had. Anything else is a knock-off--so I say, just knock it off Michael.
@whocaniturnto This version is Ella Fitzgerald influenced, if you find Ella's version you'll see. But you are right, Bobby owns this song...but I have to disagree in your saying this one is embarrassing, he is very good, this version is just different but I do like it. But not as much as Bobby's!
@nubetuber51 I would say Bobby Darin did the best version. I think this song needs a smoother voice. Louis certainly didn't have it, and I think even Michael's voice is slightly too rough for it. And, for the time of this song, I would say Michael's version simply doesn't have enough swing to it.
@MrStoneburger Bobby Darin had everything to do with this song. Millions would have never heard it had he not done his BEST version of it. This little baby country has put out more music, listened to by billions around the world, than any country in history. Don't sell America short.
This is boring to me. I listened to Ella's, Louis' and Sinatra and the only one is BOBBY DARIN! I would have never known this song existed without the Bobby Darin version, which is the best version.

@poissonCHA1 It's Bobby Darin who made this song recognizable worldwide. Just listened to Sinatra, Ella and Louis and Bobby far surpasses theirs and I guess that's why he made the song famous. Because he does it best.

DEAR WORLD, NOT ALL WHITE CATS ARE SQUARE AS THESE JIVE MOTHERFUCKERS; SOME OF US SWING HARD, I SWEAR IT. I hope Mack takes that blade to Buble, the MD, and the rest of the band, starting with that no-pocket-havin drummer.

@montka666 Well this is an old video. He's laughing all the way to the bank these days! More successful than people who respond "he sucks" to pure talent!
PLEASE DON'T READ THIS. YOU WILL BE KISSED ON THE NEAREST POSSIBLE FRIDAY BY THE LOVE OF YOUR LIFE.TOMORROW WILL BE THE BEST DAY OF YOUR LIFE. NOW YOU'VE STARTED READING THIS. DON'T STOP. THIS IS SO FREAKY. 1. say your name 10 times 2. say your mom's name 5 times 3. say your crushes name 3 times 4. paste this to 4 other songs. if you do this, your crush will kiss you on the nearest Friday. but if you read this and do not paste this, then you will have very bad luck
i love michael buble, but with this song i don´t know why i don´t like, i think the band wasn´t good enough, without swing . Westlife did a better version
haha that guy totally stopped conducting and just watched Michael Buble! I think that Michael's band that he has is really good, but in way they don't need a conductor cuz he is one! and even if there was how would they be expected to pay attention to him instead of MB? I Wouldn't! that's for sure!
@schweppes069 Sinatra appeared with the "Hoboken Four" on "Major Bowes Amateur hour", winning a talent contest as a foursome. HE alone made the big time afterward. Still, my point was that Sinatra was an original; a musical genious, who hired arrangers like Cole Porter to arrange music so that HE could phrase the lyrics around the melody of a song in his own unique, and inimitable style. Buble' is a cover singer who sings to arrangements that were made for Sinatra, imitating Sinatra's phrasing.
All of you are quoting record sales as the definitive proof that Sinatra was better than Buble. I never stated Sinatra lacked talent. It`s all pop songs at the time, so what. I have a question... If Sinatra was released in the age of the free download, would you be able to quote album sales as definitive proof as you do
i have the version from "come fly with me disc 1 on my ipod with the beginning and extra minute and seconds...it sounds different from all the ones on youtube. anyone know why lol?
I'd bet Bobby D and Frankie S are smiling watching this kid keep these great songs alive. Not the same as the originals but he performs them with a lot of class and respect. Go to one of his shows and you'll see he's a regular guy, a hockey player for gods sake, with tons of admiration for those guys and songs. Best of this generation for sure, very talented performer and great voice!
Why do you guys all compare buble with sinatra or darin or other singers - buble just sings how he likes the music, and that is great and not comparable with sinatra which is completely different -
Darin, Bublé , these guys are light weights. Loius Armstrong does it so much better and he doesn't need any key change gimmicks . The of course if you want to know what it's all about listen to kurt Weil who wrote the thing. And of course Sinatra, well where would he have been if he didn;t have friends in the Mafia
Darin, Bublé , these guys are light weights. Loius Armstrong does it so much better and he doesn't need any key change gimmicks . The of course if you want to know what it's all about listen to kurt Weil who wrote the thing
@yaloolah42 I have a feeling it has to do with the genre that made it popular. It seems that Jazz is the only genre that can take a song like this and make it, lack for better words, extremely enjoyable to listen to. But yeah, it's pretty amusing, that the it's become so popular.
@yaloolah42 - And it dates from 1928....you should check out "Lost in the Stars: The Music of Kurt Weill", where Sting covers this tune. Kurt Weill also wrote a tune The Doors did, popularly known as "Whiskey Bar"
Jesus christ this is awful. It's about as far away from having any character or feeling as you could possibly get. If you want the real thing, and not this offensive sham, listen to the great Lotte Lenya or Bertold Brecht versions.
I have to agree...this version is not very good...Sadly course Michael Bublé allways seems to be doing a great job keeping the old swing crooning music alive.
@FuzzyRat13 Louis Armstrong is a legendary icon. He originally earned fame as a cornet and trumpet player and was also a singer with a unique style and voice. If you like his voice, you like it. But I don't personally think his voice was particularly of great quality. He is not a singer in the order of Nat Cole, Sinatra, or Tony Bennet. I personally prefer Darin's reading of this song, as I believe his voice, timing, and phrasing were superior to Armstrong's here.
"Mack the Knife" was introduced to the United States hit parade by Louis Armstrong in 1956, but the song is most closely associated with Bobby Darin, In 1959 Darin's version reached number one on the Billboard Hot 100 and number six on the Black Singles chart, and earned him a Grammy Award for Record of the Year. Frank Sinatra, who recorded the song with Jimmy Buffett, called Darin's the "definitive" version.
the song was composed by Kurt Weill with lyrics by Bertolt Brecht for their music drama Die Dreigroschenoper, or, as it is known in English, The Threepenny Opera. It premiered in Berlin in 1928 at the Theater am Schiffbauerdamm. The song has become a popular standard.
I saw Buble about 7 years ago in Birmingham England. He was fantastic. He ran around the large arena of hundreds of people touching their hands. At the end of the night he stood on the massive stage and sang without a mike. His voice transmitted around the arena without any effort, it was fantastic, electric. He is so talented. But most of all he is a really down to earth man not big headed at all.
@WeCamefortheDead Are you fucking serious? The 80s called--they want their shitty bass-direct sound back. If I want to hear that bright, snotty tone, I'll listen to Eddie Gomez playing his ass off on Three Quartets or Ron Carter on State of the Tenor or something. No one should ever get a sound like that anymore, not live or recorded, and especially not on straightahead shit.
@mnwees Fred Who? one hit wonder where is that yambag now, probably working in a car wash. Buble will be around for a long time, he has more talent than Durst could ever pray for.
There is absolutely NO comparison with the likes of Sinatra,bennet etc!! Michael is in a league of his own,he commands the stage with such charisma and a rare talent the likes of us will only see once in a lifetime!! He hold's his own and shows us just why he cannot be compared 2 anyone else!! ......The day will come when people say about some other artist "Oh man he's the next Michael Buble....guaranteed! This beautiful man is already a "legend" in my eyes!!
I told you already...I am not Michael Bullshitble, I am a better singer no doubt! He had to fuck his producer in vancouver to be somewhere the guy even had to get him a flat where he could stay, I know things about the cock sucker!!!
@flalondon hmmm...thats interesting. I do not see your video response. Im a vocalist as well, and I'm considering learning this song in order to perform it. I would love to hear your rendition so i can learn more about possible interpretations.
well I think we all have got the right to be critics, what is gold to some is shit to others...and yes I am a better singer than this clown but I dont need to suck dick and lick butts to be someone. besides is so easy to make money out of others singers great songs.
@flalondon alright so i want to hear you sing , and if you're so good then why have i never heard of you ? instead of "wasting" your time listening to the greatest entertainer of all time ,go suck cock .
Upon listening to random covers of buble's songs from various people around the globe, I HAVE FOUND THIS teen GUY who has as RICH as your voice quality! I DON'T EVEN KNOW WHERE HIS VOICE CAME FROM.
simply UNEXPECTED. UNBELIEVABLE!
I don't even know if people will bother what i am saying but i think this guy must be checked out! I FAVORITED HIS VIDEO AND FEATURED HIM ON MY CHANNEL. thanks!

It ain't my fault some of YOU went to some school for your BA in Abersold and came out as much a politically-correct pussy as when you went in. You better believe us mean motherfuckers can swing.

Wire, btw, Sinatra was doing what he did back then, for decades, after he won a talent show.
schweppes069 1 year ago
@schweppes069 Sinatra appeared with the "Hoboken Four" on "Major Bowes Amateur hour", winning a talent contest as a foursome. HE alone made the big time afterward. Still, my point was that Sinatra was an original; a musical genious, who hired arrangers like Cole Porter to arrange music so that HE could phrase the lyrics around the melody of a song in his own unique, and inimitable style. Buble' is a cover singer who sings to arrangements that were made for Sinatra, imitating Sinatra's phrasing.
wire4paladin 1 year ago
All of you are quoting record sales as the definitive proof that Sinatra was better than Buble. I never stated Sinatra lacked talent. It`s all pop songs at the time, so what. I have a question... If Sinatra was released in the age of the free download, would you be able to quote album sales as definitive proof as you do

Best of this generation for sure, very talented performer and great voice!

@FuzzyRat13 Louis Armstrong is a legendary icon. He originally earned fame as a cornet and trumpet player and was also a singer with a unique style and voice. If you like his voice, you like it. But I don't personally think his voice was particularly of great quality. He is not a singer in the order of Nat Cole, Sinatra, or Tony Bennet. I personally prefer Darin's reading of this song, as I believe his voice, timing, and phrasing were superior to Armstrong's here.

"Mack the Knife" was introduced to the United States hit parade by Louis Armstrong in 1956, but the song is most closely associated with Bobby Darin, In 1959 Darin's version reached number one on the Billboard Hot 100 and number six on the Black Singles chart, and earned him a Grammy Award for Record of the Year. Frank Sinatra, who recorded the song with Jimmy Buffett, called Darin's the "definitive" version.

the song was composed by Kurt Weill with lyrics by Bertolt Brecht for their music drama Die Dreigroschenoper, or, as it is known in English, The Threepenny Opera. It premiered in Berlin in 1928 at the Theater am Schiffbauerdamm. The song has become a popular standard.

I saw Buble about 7 years ago in Birmingham England. He was fantastic. He ran around the large arena of hundreds of people touching their hands. At the end of the night he stood on the massive stage and sang without a mike. His voice transmitted around the arena without any effort, it was fantastic, electric. He is so talented. But most of all he is a really down to earth man not big headed at all.

No one should ever get a sound like that anymore, not live or recorded, and especially not on straightahead shit.
